ANOTHER swfnl sacrifice of life was
caused by an accident on the Vermont
Central railroad, near Woodstock, VT,
on Friday night. In heartrending de-
tails the story of the dreadful wreck,
which blotted almost half a hundred
lives out, is hardly eQualed by that of
the Ashtabula disaster. which occurred
in this State few years ago. A pas
senger train, consisting of day coaches
and sleepers. running at not very high
rate of speed, jumped the track just be.
fore reaching the bridge which spans a
chasm ifty feet deep. through which
runs the White river, and the coaches
and sleepers plunged over the precipice,
piling one upon The other, and took fire
and burned up-a fiery furnace In which
about fifty persons, many of them al
ready dead and dying,met an awful doom.

To U. S. Grant Post No. 13, G, A. r.
WASHINGTON, May 22.-The EpcrV
Evening prints the followidg autograph
letter from President Cleveland:
EXECUTIVE MANSION, /
WASHINGTON, May Is, 1887.
Mr.. William G. Robelin, Quartermas-
ter, Wilmington, Del.
DEAR SIR: / am in receipt of your
letter of the 18th inst, transmitting the
handsomely engrOssed resolutions of
Gen. u. S. Grant Post No. Is, approx
ing of my executive action in vetoing
the dependent pension bill. / express
through you to members of the post
my appreciation of the Endorsement,
and my thanks for the courtesy mani
tested in the form of their approval
1t sometimes happens that official con-
duct, clearly demanded by an impera-
tive obligation of public duty, is made
difficult by counter influences and in-
clinations, which grow out of sympathy
or by O disposition to follow with ease
and comfort the apparent current of
popular opinion. Those of our citi-
zens not holding Office, and thus en-
tirely free from the solemn obligation
of protecting the interests of the peo-
pie, after failing to realize that their
public servants are to large extent de-
barred in official action from the in
diligence of these charitable impulses
which in privote life are not only harm
less but commendable, while the de-
privation should be regarded as one OF
the stern incidents of faithful per-
formance of official duty, and while ii
should be endured with the resignation
arising from an unfaltering faith in the
ultimate justice of the American peo-
pie, it is nevertheless gratifying to re.
ceive such expressions as are contained
in the resolution now before me.
Yours very truly,
GROVER CLEVELAND.
